I was wondering when this released in the UK? I am a bit confused really, here's my mini story on it

I got the catalogue from Carphonewarehouse and the K500i was in there on Virgin PAYG

I checked their website and it's not on there.

I checked again a few days ago and it was in the search engine "K500i PAYG" but the link was broke

then it DISSAPEARED and it came on again, but only on contract!

Does anyone know when the K500i will be available? I don't really like the F500i

Hope someone has the answer

thanks a lot!

I emailed Virgin and they say they have no plans to sell the K500i

I may go for the F500i cus it is only a cosmetic difference, right?

Vodafone are doing their own version (F500i) on their website for £130 on PAYG.

Yes, but remember that you will get the horrific Vodaphone customisations if you go for a Voda branded phone! Not only in the exterior of the phone, but also the icons on the menu and the limitations Voda firmware place on the user, e.g. no MP3 ringtones.
